.TH PICLD_PLUGIN_REGISTER 3PICLTREE "Sep 19, 2001"
.SH NAME
picld_plugin_register \- register plug-in with the daemon
.SH SYNOPSIS
.LP
.nf
\fBcc\fR [ \fIflag\fR... ] \fIfile\fR... \fB-lpicltree\fR [ \fIlibrary\fR... ]
#include <picltree.h>
\fBint\fR \fBpicld_plugin_register\fR(\fBpicld_plugin_reg_t *\fR\fIregp\fR);
.fi
.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
The \fBpicld_plugin_register()\fR function is the function used by a plug-in
module to register itself with the PICL daemon upon initialization. The plug-in
provides its name and the entry points of the initialization and cleanup
routines in the \fIregp\fR argument.
.sp
.in +2
.nf
typedef struct {
int version; /* PICLD_PLUGIN_VERSION */
int critical; /* is plug-in critical? */
char *name; /* name of the plugin module */
void (*plugin_init)(void); /* init/reinit function */
void (*plugin_fini)(void); /* fini/cleanup function */
} picld_plugin_reg_t;
.fi
.in -2
.sp
.LP
The plug-in module also specifies whether it is a critical module for the
proper system operation. The critical field in the registration information is
set to \fBPICLD_PLUGIN_NON_CRITICAL\fR by plug-in modules that are not critical
to system operation, and is set to \fBPICLD_PLUGIN_CRITICAL\fR by plug-in
modules that are critical to the system operation. An environment control
plug-in module is an example for a \fBPICLD_PLUGIN_CRITICAL\fR type of plug-in
module.
.sp
.LP
The PICL daemon saves the information passed during registration in \fIregp\fR
in the order in which the plug-ins registered.
.sp
.LP
Upon initialization, the PICL daemon invokes the \fBplugin_init()\fR routine of
each of the registered plug-in modules in the order in which they registered.
In their \fBplugin_init()\fR routines, the plug-in modules collect the platform
configuration data and add it to the PICL tree using PICLTREE interfaces
(3PICLTREE).
.sp
.LP
On reinitialization, the PICL daemon invokes the \fBplugin_fini()\fR routines
of the registered plug-in modules in the reverse order of registration. Then,
the \fBplugin_init()\fR entry points are invoked again in the order in which
the plug-ins registered.
.SH RETURN VALUES
.sp
.LP
Upon successful completion, \fB0\fR is returned. On failure, a negative value
is returned.
